What about the leaves?
What about the time of day?
What about love?
What we gonna throw away?

I caught it in my hand
I saw in the sand today
That part of me that can
The part of me that runs away
You wanted me to know
You really gotta leave this place
There's water in the boat
But half of me that hopes you'll stay

Well what about the leaves?
What about the time of day?
And what about love?
What we gonna throw away?

That story in your head
Of water that you let run dry
The words you never said
Are forming in your head sometimes
And it's easy in the sun
It's easier to close your mind
You really want to run?
You really want to leave behind?

Well what about the leaves?
What about the time of day?
And what about love?
What we gonna throw away?

Well what about the leaves?
What about the time of day?
And what about love?
What we gonna throw away?
Well what about the leaves?
What about the time of day?
And what about love?
What we gonna throw away?

Well what about the leaves?
What about the time of day?
What about love?
What we gonna throw away?
